[quote=Anonymous]So my mom has Altheimzer's and i have 3 kids (oldest is 6). I am finding it really hard to balance their care with hers. We are fortunate to be able to hire care for her (she is resistant to an assistant living facility) but she spends 3 days a week with us and I find myself yelling a lot more at the kids when she is around because their normal energy level - and noise level- makes her anxious and irritable. Are there others dealing with this too? How do you balance and prioritize needs? I just finished my days with her and put kids to bed and distressing with a glass of wine but any and all suggestions or sharing of stories welcome![/quote]
